This hike was a lot of fun but it gets very tight for quite a ways. By the time we got done with this it felt like we did a 20 mile hike. The adults, not the kids. Lol. there's approximately six repels that you have to do and they're all pretty twisty. Your ropes get beat up pulling them through on this one. We didn't run into any water in the canyon, which is probably a good thing. It was so tight that you had to walk like a ballerina with your feet out away from each other and our backpacks on our heads. This got a very tiring but it was fun. I think the longest repel is about 30 ft.

Had the place to ourselves. Great adventure.

East and West Forks. Fun stuff, obstacle after completing the West Fork was unexpected. A good reminder that you have to be prepared for just about anything after descending slots within a week or two after a major weather event.
